Bowel Cancer Australia is proudly supporting the Great Comebacks® Program, which is an independent program enabling people living with intestinal diseases, such as bowel cancer, or an ostomy to share their story to inspire others who are facing these diseases or transitioning into life after surgery.

In 2016, organisers are launching the first Great Comebacks® Awards Program in Australia and New Zealand.

The Program will be overseen by a panel of committee members, including Bowel Cancer Australia’s Bowel Care Nurse, Mandy Richardson.

The program has been successfully run in the United States for over 30 years, and is primarily sponsored by ConvaTec in partnership with various organisations.
